Distillation of Wood.
From Me Sctentifc Amertcan


The Cadosia Chemical Co.. at Cadosia. N.
Y, has several establishments in that vicin.
ity for the diStillation of wood, which has
now BECOME an extensive and important
industry.
Almost any of the harder varieties of
wood will answer, but those chiefly found
and used by this company, in the region il
now occupies are birch, beech and maple.
Pine, hemlock and soft woods will not
answer. The general operations and prod
ucts of the company are as follows:
Contracts are made with the neighboring
farmers for the purchase of standing wood,
on which an agreed amount is paid in adj
vance, balance payable as fast as the wood
is cut by the company. The wood is deliv.
cred at the works in ordinary four-foot
lengths and is then piled i'll the distilling
retortS, of which there are in the Cadosia
still house a pairs. The retorts consist of
cast iron, somewhat in the form of steam
boiler about 10 feet long and AZ feet dame
ter, having a large manhole at one end and
condensing exit neck at the other end.
When retort is filed with wood the man.
hole is closed and sealed; slow fire is then
started under the retort The first products
of the distillation, consisting of alcoholic
vapors, are passed through condensing
worm, and the liquid thus produced is sub
seouently redistilled and this product then
SOlu. NOSb Vi IL ROtS W
where it is refined and put on the market as
wood alcohol.
The second products of the dstillation,
consisting Of acetic vapors are condensed
as before described and the liquid is mixed
with lime, thorough mixture being effected
by mechanical means thus producing ace
tate Of lime-used in cloth printing works
The crude acetate is placed above the retorts
on racks, where it is dried and is then ready
for market.
The third products of the distillation, con-
sisting of taIry matters and naphthas. are
shipped as produced, and subsequently re-
fined.
The last products, consisting of heavy
tars. are used at the works as fuel. When
the tlistillation is finished, there remains
within the retorts mass of clean and beau
tiful charcoal, ready for market, and all Of
it is sold to the steel makers. Most OF it goes
to Troy, N. Y, where it is chiefly used in the
production OF fine steel.
The principal fuel used in these works is
bituminous coal, which, together with the
crude lime required, is brought to the works
